I'm frequently asked what inspires me to create makeup looks and if I ever run out of ideas. Honestly, makeup for me is so much more than just paint so it's easy to be inspired. It's passion, it's expression, and it's conveying your emotions and feelings on a canvas that is naturally animated. Makeup makes me want to grab beauty from everywhere and exude that feeling on a face. Today I want to share with you, in photos, a glimpse of my inspiration taken by a true artist, Kassia Phoy.

It's almost mundane to say "nature" as an easy response to inspiration, but only because it's so easy to take it for granted. Pink petals, soft sunlight, green leaves, and a sea of wispy vines are both delicate and wild. Isn't that frequently what we want our makeup to say about us as well?

It can be as specific as a neon lipstick trend or as vague as the feeling of your heart beating faster as you spin. Inspiration comes where you open your eyes and see it.

Thank you so much to my readers for following me on my inspiration trail and inspiring others in return. And thank you to Kassia not only for the beauty and talent of your art but also for your huge heart and support as a dear friend. You inspire me. ❤

Please do the tutorial about hwo you did your hair, i use curling wand as well but my hair is nothing like your and it looks 'broken' at the ends... I would really appreciate if you could find the time to do this tutorial, maybe I do something wrong...

This was such a gorgeous shoot--both in terms of the camera work and your lovely self! I adore your lip color here and you look so pretty--it reminds me a lot of Park Bom's shoot for Elle several months ago. Would love to see more pics like these on your blog!

I'm super petite like you and have been searching for a pair of similar style that would fit my tiny ankles and they look like such a great fit on you!! What size would you recommend ordering for those boots?
